---------------------------------------
Summary: Check if there are memory leaks in simple API
Key: ODFTOOLKIT-366
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ODFTOOLKIT-366
Project: ODF Toolkit
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.6-incubating
Reporter: Florian Hopf
I just stumbled across this question on Stackoverflow where a user has problems with the memory
consumption of the simple API: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16807576/leaky-java-library-slowly-takes-all-memory-no-outofmemoryexception-is-thrown-w
While it is normal that the DOM based approach can use a lot of memory we should also check
if there is a leak in there. There are some places where elements are cached in static fields
(e.g. the SelectionManager in the navigation package) that could cause problems for long running
applications if not cleaned correctly.
